    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    Whilst waiting for my prescription (15 minutes for a basic antibiotic!) I bought three bb creams in fair. I am currently very "yellow" or "light olive" as I haven't been in the sun for ages. Therefore it suits me. My friend is a very fair "white" skin and it is far too orange for her!

    However, i had to let it sink in for a while, so don't be too disheartened when you first apply it.

    £11.42 was a bargain but it took off 10% for being in the contact lense scheme, so under £11 seemed a good price!
    If you aim for the moon if you miss at least you will land among the stars!

    Don't know if anyone has mentioned but the no 7 bronzing powder is glitching aswell, buy one scan both vouchers 11.50 bronzer for 3.50, as told me about it today, tried it 4 times ;). Probably best at self service or when bought with other goods.

    Thank you. This worked for me and the bronzer is lovely!
  • I just nipped to Boots in my lunchbreak to try this out. I've spent far too much on No7 this month already, using the £5 off vouchers, but this seemed too good to miss - and I use the BB cream and other No7 products anyway - so a good investment.

    Well it worked! I don't think I was the first person to try it, as i took my products to the cashier, she said 'You're in for some bargains here!' - and the woman before me seemed to be doing the same thing! She was really lovely and thought it was a great idea!

    I bought 2 BB creams & a No7 facewash that is normally £9.

    Pre-deals cost for the 3 items = £34.90
    I paid: £11.42!

    The thrill as I left the shop was immense!:T

    Hi,

    I just found out recently that you can order things from Boots Online in store. You pay at the till as usual then they order the items into store for you to collect.

    On Monday I order a Proactiv Starter kit in store for the £29.99 online price (£39.99 in store). As I paid in store I received the £5 / £3 off No7 voucher, and got the online saving. As the order is delivered to the store there is no p&p charge.

    Hope this makes sense and saves others money.
    :T

    Great bargain find. My sister and I both use this so I did a "double shop" and we both now have 6 each! It's sooooo good getting a bargain on things you normally buy - delighted! :-D

    Ok, I'm going to be really disciplined with myself here. I don't need any more make up and have stupidly sensitive skin so buying bb cream just because there is a great deal would be a bad idea.

    Anyone wants a voucher pm me your addy and I will post it.

    Hope this is okay admins, just seems like lots of people here can make good use of the vouchers. Delete if not :)
  • Returned to Plymouth store today to buy 3 lots for younger daughter. Assistant pointed out that they were now classed as make-up and go through as 'buy one get one half price' and not '3 for 2'. (Didn't tell her they were going through as both yesterday.) Left, very disappointed!

    its definitely still working today in rotherham.
    3 BB creams came in at £11.42.
    I tried it with the powder compact however and this didnt work - they were just on a BOGOHP.
    Happy Days and Happy Teenage girls !
